California Community Colleges - Online Education Initiative

The California Virtual Campus – Online Education Initiative
(CVC-OEI) is a collaborative effort among California Community
Colleges (CCCs) to ensure that significantly more students are able to
complete their educational goals by increasing both access to and
success in high-quality online courses.

The CVC-OEI is sponsored by the Foothill-De Anza Community College
District as the recipient of a $56.9 million five-year grant disbursed
by the California Community College Chancellor’s Office (CCCCO).
Composed of high-quality online courses, resources for students, and
technology, the CVC-OEI represents a comprehensive and collaborative
program that leverages effective practices and technology to
significantly increase the opportunity for higher education degree
attainment in California.

Disclaimer: It is important to note the purpose of these
modules is to provide general information. It is not intended as
formal training, permission to practice as a mental health counselor
or for certification or licensure in the mental health field but
rather to address the basic areas of consideration associated with
the referral to mental health counseling when providing services in
an online environment. Any included discussion or activities do not
indicate specific solutions. Many practice requirements are specific
to unique situations and individual providers, resulting in local
standards and procedures. Counselors are advised to review and
follow existing practice guidelines from their institutions and
professional organizations.

Learning to be trauma-informed can not be done as effectively
without exploring equity and how to be more culturally-responsive. To
that end, as educators, we must educate ourselves from the
"inside out." This interactive, embodied workshop is
designed to give district leaders, site leaders, teachers, and support
staff the relevant trauma-informed knowledge and trauma-sensitive
practices that will help transform their own practices and, therefore,
their schools - from the "inside-out." The information
presented in this workshop will focus on how student learning and
behavior is impacted by trauma, how educators and support staff can
help students develop a greater sense of safety at school, and how to
build new emotional regulation skills.

By the end of the workshop, participants will:

1. understand the interconnectedness of trauma, social emotional
learning, and equity

2. understand what trauma is and how it impacts our students on
cognitive and physiological levels

These events are for ALL students (high school and community college).

HBCUs, UCs, Cal States, and private institutions will be in
attendance. Many of the 37 partner HBCUs will be in attendance. Be
sure to stop at our table for a list of partner HBCUs in attendance.

Please encourage your students to attend. School representatives
will have the option to offer admission on the spot, so encourage
students to dress for success! In order to be offered admission during
the event, bring your several copies of your unofficial or official
(preferred) transcripts and your school ID (and test scores for high
school students).

3CSN Spring Regional Sharing Summit

3CSN would like to invite you to our Spring Regional Sharing Summit
"Students are Educators, Educators are Students." Our Fall
Regional Sharing Summits were a big success and we are building on the
work of those participants, as well as the work done at our other fall
Core Events, in these summits. Please click on one of the links below
to register for an event in your area:

The summit will be a working session that will allow participants to
build knowledge, relationships and learning tools through active
engagement and team time in support of the Vision for Success. The day
will be focused on the following:

· Developing and building relational trust with cross-functional
campus colleagues

· Building strategies to meaningfully engage a wide array of
students in campus planning

We encourage you to bring a cross-functional team including faculty
from instruction and student services, classified staff,
administrators, and students. We recommend you include people who are
working on your AB 705, Guided Pathways and College Promise plans, as
well as those leading the professional learning efforts at your college.

All summits will be from 8:30am – 3:00pm. Breakfast and lunch will
be provided.
